Oakley - Mr. Smarty Pants

Story #1
So I was enjoying a peaceful morning with my children. Oakley & I were baking a cake, & Rebekah was having a nap. Still in my baking apron I gathered up the garbage, threw on Trevor’s slippers & went outside to dispose of the bag in our garbage cans. Upon arriving at the garbage cans I heard our front door close behind me. The thought did go through my head – wouldn’t it be awful if Oakley locked me outside?? Talk about your worst situation.
~~ As I continue this story, please keep in mind that I am sporting an apron & Trevor’s slippers that are 3 sizes too large for me. ~~
(yes, I do have clothes on underneath the apron).
Upon trying to enter back into the house, I turn the door knob and…. you guessed it – I was locked outside by a 2 year old boy.
Immediately I started to panic. What am I going to do?? I looked in our front window & there was my boy smiling & waving at me, “Hi Mommy!!” I guess he thought it quite comical that he was in & I was out. “Oakley!” I yelled, “Come to the door & open it for Mommy”. No matter how hard he tried, the door was not opening. Okay – so what was I to do next? I could just picture me knocking on my new neighbours door: “Hi! You don’t know me yet, but my 2 year old son just locked me out of my house. Can I use your phone??” And then what? My kids would be alone in the house until dad arrived with the keys??
Of course there was not one window open in our house, but I thought just maybe the back sliding glass door would be unlocked. No such luck. As I arrived at the door I could see Oakley watching TV, totally oblivious to the fact that I was panicking & locked outdoors.
“Oakley!!” I yelled, while knocking on the door, “Please come here.”
After about a minute of calling him, (he apparently was more concerned about his TV show than mom), he finally sauntered over to the door. He was able to flick the switch & unlock our back door for me… whew!!

Story #2
Tonight Oakley was having a bath and daddy was watching him. Oak was playing with his cars in the water having a great ol’ time. Then he paused and said, “Daddy what’s that?” Trevor didn’t hear any thing and said, “Is it Rebekah?” Then all of a sudden there was a rumble and gas bubbles surfaced. Oakley said, “art”…and Trevor said, “Gas?” “No daddy FART!” Oakley answered.

Oakley had a fun time at the Vernon Vipers hockey game with Daddy

"Princess Rebekah"

Daddy & Oakley are stoked for the big game!!

Get out of my dreams.... get into my car...
